My refreshed Omega
« on: 10 March 2011, 19:04:33 »

Well my car was looking a bit tired with the paint work so took the plunge and got her repainted, plus I have done a few modifications to the body as well....... So when I got home from work today gave her a rinse off then gave her a good wash and dried her off.......

Thanks Danny she's not quite finished on the front end yet, just need to get the slam panel welded in then she is done.

Thanks guy's, got it done for £800 but should have cost £2500 and that was for a full outside body respray including dent removal (x5) and rust removal (x6) and treated before she was sprayed over.

I bet i will look even better with a better camara, not too sure what colour it is supposed to be but you got yourself a bargain on the paint job.
Plase post some better pics asap so we can drool properly

Yes it was the whole outside of the car and I got the whole re-spray for £800 but it should have cost £2500.

cracking paint finish, i imagine you are very pleased.
I'm not sure that i would personally be able to justify a full respray at such cost for a car that is worth comparatively less, but if you are indeed planning on keeping the car for the considerable future then I would understand your reasons for doing it.

I dont think i've had any car longer than a year and most of the for around 6 months lol. I think i have a short car attention span haha.
